Accessing Advanced settings to setup Open VPN

Model : Archer C7

Hardware Version :

Firmware Version : 3.15.1 Build 160719 Rel.57530n

ISP : TW - Spectrum

I'm interested in setting up OpenVPN on my C7 router. Documentation says to "Go to Advanced > VPN Server > OpenVPN, and select Enable VPN Server". It appears that when I login I'm apparently taken straight to the Basic screen and there is no Advanced option. Suggestions?

Hello,
Your router's hardware is V2, it has old web interface page, and doesn't support setting up OpenVPN, V4 does support that.

Thanks for the reply. I presume that since this is a Hardware version issue and not just a Firmware issue there is no way to upgrade to overcome this limitation, short of buying a newer version router? Looks like I failed my due diligence...
